It's funny you say maple syrup is an autumn sweetener when sugaring season is the spring when the sap starts running. To this New England girl, the smell of maple syrup means warm weather is on the way!

I am just reading the comments and noticed I forgot the water as well! I subbed puréed zucchini for all of the oil, so my cake didn't come out crumbly, more like a dense zucchini bread.

I made it yesterday and it's a hard rock - what a disappointment! Now I see comments mentioning water! Water? What water? That's NOT listed in the ingredients, and should be! I missed it completely in the text below because I hardly ever need to read instructions on how to make something.
Because I use coconut oil in all my cooking and baking, I used it instead of the canola oil (it's really great in baked goods - adds a little "something").
I feel like I wasted all those great ingredients, and it really is a rock! I can see why. Well, I can crumble it up for the birds......

I meant applesauce for oil ;)

Any ideas to substitute the oil???? I've sub'ed oil for applesauce before but if I do that for the water what could I use for the oil??

Maple Bundt Cake really good, but needs a binder! Beautiful, smells and tastes great, but after cooling and trying to slice, it all falls apart and crumbles. Ugly! Maybe applesauce instead of water??

Surprisingly good texture and moisture for a cake made with all whole wheat flour and no eggs, butter, or sugar. Nice maple flavor and not too sweet. However, all that whole wheat flour gave the cake a somewhat bitter edge. Next time I'll use half whole wheat and half white pastry flour.

I know this is partially my being a space cadet, but I would really appreciate Vegetarian Times including water in the list of ingredients. I tend to skim a recipe for order of process, and then read off of the list as I add ingredients. I just went through the instructions to check the time, after I had put this cake in the oven, and noted that I had forgotten to add the 1 1/3 cup water. I am sure the cake is lovely, but this is a disappointment.

This sounds wonderful but it does use a very large amount of maple syrup which is very expensive.

I love deserts! Recently, I saw a new recipe about the Strawberry Tofu dessert on http://fourgreensteps.com/community/recipes/desserts-a-goodies-/strawberry-tofu-dessert. I think you should try it!
